After its success in North India, 'Speed Car Wash' is all set to tap the South Indian market, with plans to open 25 outlets in the next two years, a top company official said today.

"The company entered the car wash market with Italian technology just 18 months ago and 17 units have already been opened in the North, a majority of them on franchisee basis," Pushpinder Singh, Country Head, Business Development, Speed Car Wash, told reporters here.

Singh, who was here to open outlets in the city and nearby Tirupur, the first in Tamil Nadu, said the company has started operations in Bangalore and Mysore.

It planned to open 25 units in two years in Southern India with 10 in Tamil Nadu alone in one year on the franchisee model.

With 35 million cars on the road and growing at the rate of 10 per cent, the demand for a professional and reliable cleaning service is higher than ever and only going to increase further, Singh said.

The company is in talks with petrol bunks and big malls to open car wash outlets, he said adding the washing process would take only 20 minutes with rates ranging from Rs 250 to Rs 1,500, depending on the car model.

He said it was a unique mechanised car cleaning concept where cars get 'pampered' with the latest equipment, including high pressure cleaning machines, spray extraction machines, high powered vaccum cleaners and steam cleaners.

It reduces water consumption by upto 60 per cent, which makes it eco-friendly as well, Singh added.

The company also planned to start mobile car washing units at the earliest, he said.
